Almost On time or Too Late

"When I'm old, just before I die, I want to gather my entire family around and say to each of them, in a British accent, “You were brilliant.” as sincerely as possible. And anyone who doesn't get the Doctor Who reference will be written out of my will."- T. Eating Stars

When I die I want to be able to say: "I regret Nothing." But I can't cross that off my list because I regret a lot of things. My biggest regret is being late. (insert off color colored joke here) There are bands that I only started to love recently who I can't see in concert because they don't tour- Noisettes, Gossip; lead singer has new group- Rilo Kiley; or they're too poor- The Carps. It's disappointing and shows how important it is to actively search for things to get them on time. I learned this lesson HARD. For 12 long distressful hours I thought I was too late to pay my student loan down enough to qualify for more aid. I was so distraught I cleaned my room, and looking through old papers I saw that I had a lot of chances. I had opportunities to delay, to defer, to forbear, and I avoided notices hoping they would go away instead of just dealing with them. Once I finally started paying and dealing with things I had no more chances. So basically deal with things immediately, don't wait, and actively search for ways to get to YES! (Hey Ziggy).
